IMPROVEMENT IN SAW-SETS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 192,991, dated July 10,1877; application filed March 13, 1877.

To all whom it may concern:

Beit known that I, CHRISTOPHER HEINEN, of Leavenworth, in the State ofKansas, have invented certain new and usefulImprovements in Saw-Sets;and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exactdescription thereof, which will enable others skilled in the art towhich it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to theaccompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon,which form a part of this specication, and in which- Figure 1 isaiperspective view of my improved saw-set. Fig. 2 is a longitudinalsection thereof, and Fig. 3 is a modified form of the setting-hammer.

Corresponding parts in the several figures are denoted by like letters.y This invention relates to a certain improvement in saw-sets; and itconsists of a hinged or pivoted leaf, having a detachable slottedsupport or frame provided with a gage or clamp, in combination with asupport having a hammer or .lever and spring, substantially ashereinafter more fully set forth.

In the annexed drawing, A refers to a block or other support, which maybe rmly fastened to a work-bench or other convenient point, a plate, B,preferably provided with lugs or and to which is pivoted thesetting-hammer C, of the ordinary construction.

Fig. 3 shows a modified form of the hammer.

In an orifice, c, in the plate B may be inserted a rubber or elasticplug, c', to spring the hammer or lever after the blow. `Upon the plateB is an adjustable gage or clamp, D,

ears b b, between having a set-screw, d. To the plate B is hinged orpivoted a leaf, E, against the lower side of which bears an adjusting orset screw, F, working in a bar, f, projecting from and secured betweenthe plate B and block A, or otherwise fastened in place.

By means of the hinged or pivoted leaf E and screw F the set of thesaw-teeth may be varied.

Gr is a frame, detachably connected to the leaf E, as at g, and having aclamp or gage, H, adjusted thereto by the set or adjusting screw I andclamp-nut t, to vary its adjustment with reference to the gage or clampD, to adapt them to receive saws ot' varying sizes.

As the use of the extension or slotted frame G is for saws ofconsiderable depth or width, it becomes necessary to detach the saidextension or frame in properly adjusting tapering and narrow-bladed sawsupon the hinged leaf to beset.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secureby Letters Patent, is

The hinged or pivoted leaf E, having the detachable slotted support orframe G, pro-V vided with the gage or clamp H I, in combination with thesupport A, having the hammer or lever C and spring c', all constructedand arranged as described, substantially as and for the purpose setforth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I hereunto affix mysignature in presence of two witnesses.

CHRISTOPHER HEINEN.
